Community Robotics, Education, and Technology Empowerment

About

Welcome to the CREATE Lab

The CREATE Lab strives to be both a hub of innovative technology and an active community partner. It is this unique combination that enables a new form of local change: one that empowers the public to chart their technology future and, most importantly, their community's prospects for quality of life.

PROJECTS

What We Do

PGH EarthTime

EarthTime enables users to interact with visualizations and narratives over time and space. These stories focus on local themes in the Pittsburgh and Allegheny County region.
